4 Ingredient Strawberry Frozen Yogurt

How to make healthy strawberry frozen yogurt that seriously takes just 4 simple ingredients and no ice cream machine required!

Alright, my friends, I have some very, very good news for you.

If you love strawberries as much as I do, like me, you probably have wondered how you can insert even more strawberries into your life.

You with me?  Good.

Read on…

Naturally, my mind goes to ice cream.

Is that weird?

Because: cold, sweet things are amazing.  And strawberries.

Since my 1 ingredient banana ice cream recipe was so fantastic, I thought about trying a similar kinda recipe.

But strawberries aren’t quite as creamy as bananas.

Then, I realized what needed to be in this recipe.  What would make it amazing.  And creamy.  And even add protein.

And that magic, wondrous ingredient is: plain greek yogurt.

Yaas.

Strawberries + Greek Yogurt is my kind of perfection, peeps.

And, when I say perfection, what I really mean to say is it’s easy, creamy, strawberry, sweet, icy, coolness.

All the things you want in your frozen ice cream treat…plus it’s healthy!

Is Frozen Yogurt Better Than Ice Cream?

All you need is 4 ingredients and you’ve got yourself an amazing strawberry frozen yogurt.

So, the big debate: Is frozen yogurt better than ice cream? And by better, I mean better for our health. The answer, my friends, always depends on what those things are actually made of. Not all fro-yos are made equal, with many of them containing more sugar than regular ice cream.

This strawberry frozen yogurt recipe is made from 100% real foods, which makes it clean, free of refined sugars, free of heavy creams, and all that junk that’s normally in store-bought ice creams.

We don’t need that stuff.

We need THIS.

This goodness right here.

How to Make Strawberry Frozen Yogurt

You ready for this easiness?  Here’s how you make strawberry frozen yogurt:

Wash the strawberries and remove the stems. Slice in half.

Lay the strawberries out evenly over a sheet of parchment paper and place into the freezer overnight or for at least 4-5 hours.

Add the frozen strawberries, honey, greek yogurt, and lemon juice to a food processor.

Process until creamy, about 5 minutes. You many need to scrape down the sides. If you find the strawberries are not fully blending, you can remove half and blend in batches and/or add a little water to help it along.

Test for sweetness, and add additional honey as needed.

Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 2-3 hours for harder consistency.

I love using my food processor for this strawberry frozen yogurt recipe, but you could also use a heavy duty blender.  You just need something that will break up the frozen strawberries and mash them into pureed strawberry goodness.

Quick tip: If you have a little trouble getting the strawberries to blend, you can add a little water to help it along or blend in batches – it really depends on the size of your strawberries and the strength of your food processor or blender.

If you liked my banana ice cream recipe and you love strawberries, this strawberry froyo is for you.  Just four ingredients until you have this creamy strawberry goodness waiting for you.

Aaaaaand GO! 🙂
